Several years ago I experienced...

From the November 1921 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Several years ago I experienced severe pain in my right leg, making it impossible for me to stand. I tried to lie down on the sofa but was unable to do so and in great pain took up a copy of Der Herold. While I was reading, the perspiration was streaming from my forehead on to the book, so great was my pain. After a few minutes I felt a strong pressure upon my leg, stood up, and was able to walk without pain. I also had the grip and requested the help of a practitioner. After she left I was able to move, and soon afterwards got up. I have also received many other blessings for which I express heartfelt gratitude. I learned of Christian Science eleven years ago through my daughter, and I am very grateful to her for having acquainted me with this teaching. In the spring of this year I suddenly became ill, and my children hurriedly called a physician, who said I had pleurisy. In spite of this I requested the practitioner to come, and the next day I was able to get up for a time. After that I improved daily. I thank the dear Lord for this; also for strength at my advanced age and for the knowledge that God's love reigns 'over all. He is the only help and Savior of the world. I am also very grateful to our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, for showing us the way to the truth. —
